Pike Road rallies past upset-minded Julian 39-35

PIKE ROAD — You know what they say about a full moon? That all the crazy comes out during its presence. Pike Road and Percy Julian could certainly feel it Friday night in one of the wildest games you will see all season.

Pike Road scored three touchdowns in its first three possessions, seemingly putting the game away, but never say never. At the beginning of the second quarter, the Phoenix answered with a short touchdown run by Keshun Marbury. The extra-point attempt was blocked, the Patriots responded with a score (to make it 27-6) and once again the game appeared comfortably in Pike Road’s control.
